"Dharmacide" is an orchestral piece on the Season 3 soundtrack. It contains a sinister seven-note melody for muted trombones or strings, consisting of two similar descending figures, each ending with a half-step glissando. The theme originally characterized the Others in general but later turned into Ben Linus's character theme.
